The Holiday

Izzy Jordan knows that she ought to put the past behind her and make more of an effort to be a thoroughly Modern Woman. But shaking off a cowardly ex-boyfriend and a manipulative mother who, between them, have robbed her of her self-esteem, is easier said than done.

Help is at hand when she is invited to spend the summer on the island of Corfu. And there is even the chance of a no-strings-attached holiday romance with the irresistible Theo. But should she take it . . . ?

When Theo's oldest and closest friend, Mark, a crime writer with a past more complex than Izzy's, appears on the scene and helps her to make up her mind, it becomes a decision with consequences that will ensure this is a holiday no one will forget.
